Pros and cons
- Dishwasher-safe enamel container and mesh basket
- Heats quickly and holds temperature well
- Viewing window lets you check food without opening lid
- Only runs while timer is active
- Ready/on indicator lights hard to distinguish
- A safety-switch fit issue reported by one owner
Performance notes
Reported reliability varies: some owners describe years of steady use, while others report a loose-fitting part disengaging the safety switch or a basket failing early.
